Activity Let’s Try Skipping
'Can you skip …?'
like a giant, a fairy, a clown, a toy soldier
making yourself very small and gradually getting taller
being as tall as you can
forwards/sideways/backwards
happily/angrily/sadly, tightly/loosely
quickly/slowly, at varying speeds
in a straight line, in a curved pathway, in a circle, in a figure of 8
as fast or as slowly as you can, downhill or uphill
without using your arms – now swing your arms
to the beat of the drum or to music
without touching any lines on the floor or cracks on the concrete
with a partner – going backwards while your partner goes forwards, holding
hands so you both skip around on the spot
